minimally constrained
Telecommunications; GPS (global positioning system)
A form of least squares solution in which the observed baseline vectors are treated as "observations" in a secondary network adjustment, and only one coordinate must be held fixed ...
multi-channel receiver
Telecommunications; GPS (global positioning system)
A GPS receiver that can simultaneously track more than one satellite signal using a dedicated signal electronics channel for each satellite. High quality receivers may have 12 ...
multipath
Telecommunications; GPS (global positioning system)
Interference caused by reflected GPS signals arriving at the receiver, typically as a result of nearby structures or other reflective surfaces. May be mitigated to some extent ...
multipath error
Telecommunications; GPS (global positioning system)
Errors caused by the interference of a signal that has reached the receiver antenna by two or more different paths. This is usually caused by one path being bounced or reflected. ...
multiplexing channel
Telecommunications; GPS (global positioning system)
A channel of a GPS receiver that can be sequenced through a number of satellite signals. In contrast to a Multi-Channel Receiver in which one channel is dedicated to each ...
